Yesterday How Ethical! asked you to get involved and sign Peta’s petition to stop the Japanese persecution of dolphins.
Today, my activist friends, our 2 minute protest is about Japanese Whaling!
On Sunday 18th November the Japanese Antarctic fleet set sail to hunt an increased number of whales this coming winter. Targeting up to 935 minke whales, and for the first time 50 humpback and 50 fin whales, Japan will kill more whales, from a wider range of species than it has ever killed before.
Send a protest e-mail to Japan’s Prime Minister Yasuo.
Take action, fellow pesky kids, otherwise they’ll get away with it!
